Provisional License Holder Stopped at 148 km/h During Traffic Focus Checks

On Wientalstraße, where the speed limit is 70 km/h, several significant speed violations were detected. One of the highest recorded speeds involved an 18-year-old provisional license holder who was traveling at 148 km/h and had his license immediately revoked. Other drivers reached speeds between 116 and 154 km/h; in these cases, licenses were or will be revoked, either directly on site or as part of an official procedure. Another 50 speed violations were penalized with fines.

Illegal Street Race Stopped During Traffic Focus Checks

At Gaudenzdorfer Gürtel (50 km/h zone), police discovered an illegal street race at night between a 22-year-old car driver and a 21-year-old motorcyclist. Both were measured at almost 100 km/h. The car driver's license was immediately revoked, while the motorcyclist's revocation will be carried out by the authorities. Additionally, further significant violations were detected, including a 22-year-old driver at 94 km/h. He had an excuse: he felt provoked by other vehicles and therefore drove so fast. Furthermore, 45 fines were issued, including for squealing tires or not adjusting acceleration when starting off.
